Effective on or about May 15, 2015, the NWS will expand its mixed-case text Product Risk Reduction effort to include additional products (Table 1) issued by the National Hurricane Center (NHC). Products that were issued in mixed case in 2014 will continue to be issued in mixed case (Table 2).

NWS partners and users of these NHC text products are encouraged to consider the NWS intent and comment regarding this next step in the risk reduction effort. User feedback will help the NWS better plan the eventual transition of all NWS text products to mixed case and the expanded character set.
